Another awesome Wordless Picture Book to add to yo

Another awesome Wordless Picture Book to add to your collection! This book is precious! 💗 I’ve been reading wordless picture books under the document camera so students can see every detail up close. Also speaking of looking closely, a document camera is hands down my most used classroom tool teaching in person AND remotely.

💗☕️ Let’s just say I’m using this more than ever this year because #remoteteaching 🙃 Also, loving my mug that @thewrightstuffchics gifted me. Thank you so much! I love it! 💗

☺️GUESS WHAT?!! I got to read to kids today! My sweet, sweet teammate invited me in to read to her students!! I popped in between my online synchronous lessons. The kids were wonderful and it was SO GOOD for my soul! Thank you sooo much Abby! It made my week! 💗💗💗

We’ve been exploring wordless picture books to help us learn to read the pictures lately. Our mini lessons look a little bit different while on Google Meet but actually pretty similar to what we would do in the classroom. I plan to take pictures of the anchor charts we create and post them in our learning slides to remind students what they’re working on! #kindergarten

😍Wordless Picture Books! This one is AMAZING !

😍Wordless Picture Books! This one is AMAZING ! We’re learning all about looking closely at the pictures, noticing facial expressions, and telling the story we see. There is also a wordless picture book collection on @epic4kids that students can use to practice these skills independently if they are remote learning!

When you’re the online teacher, but still set out some Back to School books because it makes you feel better! ☺️Anyone else?!

This year more than ever, kids need opportunities

This year more than ever, kids need opportunities for off screen learning, and play! #sponsored These Hands-On Alphabet activities from @learningresources are such a fun way for kids to explore letters! They'll have a blast ordering letters, matching uppercase / lowercase letters, and connecting a letter to a word and sound! These toys are exclusively available at select Target stores and on my favorite site - Target.com! #ReadySetSchool #LearningResourcesPartner

Simplest name tree ever... and they loved it! 🙌

Simplest name tree ever... and they loved it! 🙌🏻 When I started virtual teaching in the spring, it was important to me that students could complete their learning without having a ton of supplies at home. That goal remains the same. We are keeping it simple. Today we read Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, created Name Trees, and used Flipgrid to share how many letters are in our names. #kindergarten
